I love this time of year. It's the one time where I feel totally at ease spending gobs of time in the woman's clothing and cosmetics sections of stores. Unfortunately, while in these areas I get pretty excited and it's nearly impossible to stay focused on what to get my wife and daughters without thinking of my own femme wardrobe. Do I really need another lip pencil? More bronzer? Another pair of lace panties? Absolutely!! I've never been one to impulse buy for myself but this blasted fog is making it very difficult. Happy Holidays ladies!! Watch that credit card balance!

The struggle certainly is real! Lol. I do most of my gift shopping online, but find myself having to restrain from adding a few items to the cart. Just did this on an Ulta order for my wife yesterday-slipped a few very small things in the cart to bag free shipping. My wife calls these purchases ?ghost orders? because they sneak up on the account.

Anytime I spend in the ladies department brings the fog on, sometimes thicker than others.
I refrain in going there anymore. I really have no more room for anything else.
I will have to take other the closet I have for my mens clothes. Hmmm
that gets me thinking :thinking::thinking: :heehee:

It's sometimes difficult to navigate the store aisles without day dreaming. Oh, that outfit would be fantastic at a party (if I had a party to go to). Those shoes, OMG those shoes. But I have no where to wear them, darn. Or making subtle suggestions to the wife about a pretty lingerie set, not too subtle, not too overt.
Yeah, holiday shopping is difficult.

My wife took me into the makeup isle and got me some pink mascara and blue mascara and some pink lipstick she helps feed the pink fog

I guess i'm lucky that most things don't fit me.'cause i'm so tall. I've been slowly stocking up on everyday close since I found american tall. The extra long, long sleeves are amazing.They actually fit me. I actually worry about them getting wet when I wash my hands. That's amazingIf you've never had to deal with sleeves being too short. I stocked up some more this year.During the black friday sale. And to have every color of the pajama bottoms

I stick with my budget and my prime directive: Only buy what you will wear in public.

Having retired, I retain only the honorary rank of Captain.

But you should see the standard issue, dress blues! Stunning!

How I understand you. This is exactly the reason I've got monthly allowance and that's it. Once I spend it, there's no more Marketa budget till next month.
